Thanks John. Now that the paint has dried I can see a couple of indents in the
outer column that mark the former home of this spacer and it is indeed just
north of the steering lock assembly between it and the bracket near the dash.

IIRC that is a spacer that goes on the outer column between the clamp
right behind the dash and the ignition switch assembly. Perhaps this
is only on the later column, and that's why it doesn't appear in all
the catalogues. Be sure to put it on before you connect the outer
column assembly to the lower column, or you will be taking it apart
again.
